  • 1 red onion, halved, cut into wedges
  • Lemon zest, to serve
  • 1 slice white bread, crusts removed, chopped
  • 41.20 gm milk

  • 125.00 ml fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, plus extra to serve
  • 40.00 ml pistachio kernels
  • 1 garlic clove, chopped

  • 42.00 gm lemon juice

Instructions:
  • In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, melt butter and oil until foamy. Cook mushrooms and onions in 3 batches for 4 to 5 minutes until golden and tender. Transfer to a heatproof bowl and cover to keep warm.
  • For the Oregano and Pistachio Pesto, soak bread in milk for 5 minutes, then remove excess milk. Combine soaked bread with oregano, parsley, pistachios, garlic, anchovy, lemon juice, and oil in a food processor. Blend until smooth, then season with salt and pepper.
